Circus World Displays Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at Circus World Displays (Niagara, ON) in October 2018.

Interview

Lacked the energy, questions were very "off the internet" standard. Interview was with an HR and a technical person. Questions were very generic. Office setting was sort of "worn down" and located in an iffy area. Didn't had a good vibe. HR engagement was lackluster at the best.

Interview

Phone interview, then HR, then HR with one of the interviewers, then this interviewer with one of the owners, then again the same interviewer with the same owner, then they'd offer you different positions that they have available trying to buy you for cheap thinking they attracted you enough that you'll take any position they have available, no matter how lower it is from the first one they brought you for.

Interview

I submitted my resume online. About a week or 2 later I got a call asking for a phone interview. It was scheduled with in the week. Phone interview was probably about 20 minuets asking me pretty standard questions. After the phone interview was done I was asked to come in for a face to face interview the following week. I agreed. I was called with a time change the morning of. I agreed to it. I got there early and was ushered into a conference room by the main door. I met with the HR recruiter for about 30 minutes. After she left, they had me recreate a form/chart in excel to show proficiency. I then met with the Managing Director. He talk to me about the job asked more standard questions. A few I had already been asked. They had requested my transcript and he went over it with me asking questions about classes I liked and didnt like and why I got certain marks. They called my references over the next few days and offered me the job by the end of the week.

Interview

CWD hiring and interview process was thorough and productive. Intense at times because of 3 interviewers at once. The best part of the process of meeting with team members in the area in which I was offered a position.

The hiring process was amateur to say the least. No one followed up with you, even if you are not interested in a candidate it is business etiquette to at least acknowledge phone calls or emails. The interview process followed the usual 3 step routine.

Interview Questions

Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Circus World Displays (Niagara Falls, ON).

Interview

Started with phone interview, asked several behavioural questions.
2nd Inperson interview was inperson with HR.
3rd Interview was a "Realistic Job Preview" where I spoke to members of the team I would join to learn about the position and was able to ask questions to better understand the position.
3rd interview was with managing director and direct manager I would report to. This was the most difficult due to the managing directors cocky attitude. Negotiations during the interview process were next to impossible.

Throughout the interviews I was consistently advised I would be considered for varying positions that kept changing. I would prepare to interview for one position, only to find that during the interview I would be discussing another role that I hadn't prepared to discuss.

Interview Questions

Negotiation

Wasn't able to negotiate. Was given a salary higher than others with my same title.

Interview

Interview is fair. Candidate needs to show his/her worth. Critical positions requires experience. Candidate needs to be prepared which includes information about the company. There were a series of interviews before you finally get the post.
